This is a normal post Great Britain is the larger of the two largest Islands in the British Isles
That's where the word "Great" comes from. Great as in larger than Ireland which is the second largest island. (Great) Britain comprises three nations: The Nation of England, the nation of Scotland and the nation of Wales. Add in Northern Ireland* and you have the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland or UK for short. The UK isn't a nation either. It's a united kingdom - a union of England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland. Each have their own parliaments and to some extent, laws.

*Northern Ireland is a Schrödinger's nation - it's both a part of Ireland and a part of the UK Britain England Scotland at the same time, or something like that, but it's definitely not in the EU, yes it is

This is a normal post Brittany, not Ireland
Hence Bretagne, Grand Bretagne

This is a normal post The Brittany Isles?
I guess that makes sense - they are Islands off Brittany. Ireland is still the second largest one. By the way it's Grand Grande Bretagne.
